St Dogmael's is a village and parish in Pembrokeshire, Wales, on the estuary of the River Teifi a short walk from Poppit Sands - one of many beaches along the Cardigan Bay and Pembrokeshire Coast, and a mile downstream from the town of Cardigan. The village has a small but useful supermarket and a number of public houses and restaurants, St Dogmael's gallery and excellent facilities for launching boats, canoes and kayaks.
The
village is famous for the remains of a 12th century Tironian St
Dogmaels abbey, which was in its day one of the richer monastic institutions
in Wales. It was once a marcher borough, described in 1603 as one of five
Pembrokeshire boroughs overseen by a portreeve. The abbey has just recieved
funding to develop it's visitor centre and attract more tourists.
Plays by Shakespeare are performed in the Abbey Ruins annually in the summer. Some of the actors are from the local area, others come from all over Great Britain and return regularly.
In 2006 the village won the Wales Calor
Village of the Year competition. The village is twinned with
the village of Trédarzec in Côtes-d'Armor,
Brittany.
